The Manchester City manager is a huge Elton fan
Pep Guardiola was snapped beaming from ear-to-ear at last night’s Elton John show at the AO Arena. The City manager had his phone up filming the British pop icon’s hit-filled set just like one of us.
In an interview back in 2018, Guardiola admitted that the Tiny Dancer singer was the act he would most like to see playing at the Etihad , and is a particular fan of the immortal track Your Song.He told BBC Radio 5 Live: “One of my dreams is to have a concert from Elton John, especially this song. I first heard it was when I was 18 or 19 and started to play in Barcelona, I remember a lot of songs from that period in my life.
Though Pep didn’t get his wish to have Elton play the Etihad, he did play Your Song as his penultimate track at last nights epic show, followed by set-closer Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. Read our review of the gig here.
